KFD is a Tick born viral disease with seasonal outbreak between the months of December to May. The number of cases of Kyasanur Forest Disease was investigated in Karnataka state, India, during January to July 2015. Reported incidences in 2015 were relatively less
with 124 suspected and 41 RT-PCR or IgM Elisa positive cases when compared to 400 suspected and 166 positive cases reported in 2014.
Majority of suspected KFD cases (124) in 2015 were reported from Shivamogga District, with only few cases reported from remaining
endemic districts of KFD and one death was recorded. The number of KFD cases reported every year even after regular vaccination
program in its original endemic area. KFD spreads from the zone of first outbreak along the belt of Western Ghats continuously to the
newer area. New diagnostic techniques for quick diagnosis and more effective and specific drug to treat KFD patients is the need of the
hour in the light of available vaccine which is not so readily accepted by the people in the endemic area.
